Laws?

Which laws?

I'm uncomfortable enough with US laws or Australian laws deciding what images are "illegal" to have on my phone.

But China also have laws. And Iraq. And Saudi Arabia.

And Afghanistan had one set of laws last month, but new different laws since then.

Multinational Corps may like to think they've lifted themselves above petty regional political and legal pressure from elected governments and regional law enforcement. But Apple is 100% capable of being destroyed by either of China or the USA. Anyone who thinks otherwise is fooling themselves. If you shut down Apples manufacturing in China, or head office and server farms in the US, they'd be finished.

The laws of the country you live in. If you don’t like those laws then work to change them, don’t depend on a foreign tech company to decide for you.

If I wanted to live under US laws and cultural expectations I’d move there.

If I didn't want to be poor, I'd just be rich instead!

Yes, and that's the problem. If you think that the laws protect you, an average iPhone user, you are sadly mistaken. Laws are dictated by the highest bidder, and by those in power. If they want to go after gays, or Jews, or Blacks, or Moslems, or immigrants, or political activists, or whoever, do you think the laws are going to protect or remain neutral to those groups?
